asantoolCompress an image to 200 KB
Bring a photo under 200 KB without leaving the page. A common ceiling on job portals and content systems, and roomy enough that a photo still looks like a photo. The tool below opens already set to that limit — add your image and it finds the best quality that fits.

Common questions
Why does the file end up under 200 KB rather than exactly 200 KB?
The tool searches for the highest quality that still fits inside your limit, so the result lands just under it. Encoders can't hit an exact byte count without padding the file, which would be worse than being slightly under.
How do I compress an image to 200 KB?
Add your image to the tool on this page. It is already set to a 200 KB target, so it will search for the highest quality that lands under that size and show you the result next to the original. Then download it.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The work happens in your browser using image APIs it already ships with, so the file never leaves your device. There is no upload to wait for and nothing stored on a server afterwards.
